@lizcheney.bsky.social Sending you my deepest sympathy over the loss of your father.

Yeah, this was always an ugly vehicle even if Elon wasn’t nuts. And how is it a truck?

Heard what’s happening in SC? GOP state senators are fast tracking a total abortion ban with no exceptions. The bill restricts birth control and IVF. If you take your own minor daughter who was raped to NC for an abortion, you’d get 30 years in prison. That’s more time than the rapist gets.

Journalist Mario Guevara Speaks - Letter from ICE DETENTION FACILITY — THE BITTER SOUTHERNER The only journalist detained by ICE on US soil, sends a letter to The Bitter Southerner.

This is so troubling. It sounds like Russia or North Korea level stuff. This is not the country I want. Thanks to The Bitter Southerner for publishing it and Mr. Guevara’s family for getting it out and to the media. bittersoutherner.com/journalist-m...

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Gap fires shots at American Eagle with brown jeans, blue jeans and black jeans oh my! An all diverse casting too and a great song.

She is shameless. An embarrassment to us all in SC. Good news is, she can’t run for Congress and Governor at the same time so we’re about to be done with her — for at least two years. She won’t win the governor’s race.

The White House has ordered Smithsonian Museums to align all their exhibits with Trump’s interpretation of American history. What the hell? There is no interpretation of history. There is truth and there are lies. Our history is beautiful AND painful. We need to know both. This has to stop.

Your favorite brands are funding anti-abortion legal campaigns Big-name companies are donating to a powerful political group using the legal system to expand abortion restrictions nationwide.

These companies say they support reproductive rights for their employees and all women but yet they’re donating to the Republican Attorneys General Association which is taking our rights away and arresting women for miscarriages. They need to hear from us. open.substack.com/pub/populari...

It never ceases to amaze me that stupid folks like Lutnick ever got rich.

I miss having zero awareness of the deep, infested layers of racism and hate in this country. I miss not needing to know whether a person is MAGA before I invest a millisecond in being friendly with a person, on or off social media.

CNN put together a supercut of Pam Bondi being for releasing Epstein files before she suddenly turned against it

Hype Or Hope? Latest Research On GLP-1 Receptor Agonists And Addiction Glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists like semaglutide and liraglutide are already game-changers for obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Could addiction be next?

Good article about the potential of the new weight loss meds to address #addiction, although more research is needed. Also a reminder that we have effective but under-prescribed drugs for #alcohol and opioid use disorders. @lipiroy.bsky.social

He Made Me Who I Am and Then Forgot Who He Was Daddy

I am angry at the MAGA movement for being so effective in marketing hate to the exact demographic my dad represented. I am also angry at my dad for falling for it.

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should be more concerned about a poor person misusing the welfare system or an immigrant being here illegally than we are about the ultra wealthy abusing the system and cruel people having unchecked power over all of us.

Well at least we have confirmation that the files contain something that is really bad — bad enough to make him worried that he can’t spin it or that it would turn his base against him (and considering that they will pretty much forgive him for anything, it means it’s REALLY bad)

Texas man sues California doctor over mailing abortion pills • SC Daily Gazette In the first federal lawsuit challenging shield laws, a Texas man has sued a California doctor over allegedly mailing abortion pills.

Talk about a self own. The man suing a Cali doctor over his lover’s abortion is having an affair with a married woman. Seriously, dude - don’t preach morality when you’re committing adultery. And accept that she doesn’t want anything of yours. You’re just trashy. And tacky.

Let me guess. If Ghislaine Maxwell will tell the House Oversight Committee that Trump didn’t rape children, she’ll be pardoned or get a reduction of her jail term.

I yearn for the days before I knew every Supreme Court justice's name....

Genius! Bravo Scotland!

My apologies. Her name is spelled Alivea.

What is it about the wretched MAGA obsession with trans people? French President Macron is suing the vile Candace Owen for defaming his wife and spouting nonsense that she was born a man. Could it be that Candace criticizes other women because she fears the world will discover her secret shame?

Olivia Goncalves, sister to Kaylee, is speaking now at the sentencing of the murderer of the University of Idaho students. She is powerful and her words are profound. My heart aches for these families.
